Palmolein oil prices eased by Rs 50 per quintal at the wholesale oils and oilseeds market today owing to slackened demand from retailers.
However, other edible and non-edible oils moved in a narrow range in limited deals and settled around previous levels.
Traders said low demand from retailers mainly led to the fall in palmolein oil prices.
In the national capital, palmolein (rbd) and palmolein (Kandla) oils were down by Rs 50 each to Rs 5,750 and Rs 5,600 per quintal, respectively.
